 |
|
Hi,
Got a new notebook and everything is all good apart from the DVD writer. I have tried with the standard Gnome tools, and also with GnomeBaker but I get the following error message everytime I try and write something :-
| Code: | | cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize! |
This is what dmesg shows on boot :-
| Code: | $ dmesg | grep -i -e cdrom -e dvd -e cd-rom
ata2.00: ATAPI: Optiarc DVD RW AD-7530A, EX32, max UDMA/33

is it perhaps looking for existent tracks? you know, like burning a multisession disc in nero ...
edit: look for another mode to burn the dvd/cd... it should say something like iso standard or so |

Right below the last line with "sr0", you should have a line with "sg0". This would be the SCSI generic driver loading, and this is what you need for cdburning. |

Try to burn a disk using cdrecord in verbose mode, see what it tells you. Here is an example for a rewritable disk if you're not familiar with cdrecord, replace ??? with the device.
| Code: | cdrecord dev=/dev/s??? -V blank=fast
cdrecord dev=/dev/s??? -V -dao some_small.iso
